The Expression of Signal Regulatory Protein-alpha in Normal and Osteoarthritic Human Articular Cartilage and Its Involvement in Chondrocyte Mechano-transduction Response
Signal regulatory proteins (SIRP) belong to immunoglobulin super family (IgSF) and relate to integrin signaling cascades. It has been shown that SIRPa is expressed in a variety of cells including myeloid cells and neurons. In the present study the expression of this IgSF member in articular chondrocytes was investigated. Methods: Using a panel of anti-SIRPalpha antibodies, immunohistochemistry...
متن کاملM1 muscarinic receptors inhibit L-type Ca2+ current and M-current by divergent signal transduction cascades.
Ion channels reside in a sea of phospholipids. During normal fluctuations in membrane potential and periods of modulation, lipids that directly associate with channel proteins influence gating by incompletely understood mechanisms. In one model, M(1)-muscarinic receptors (M(1)Rs) may inhibit both Ca(2+) (L- and N-) and K(+) (M-) currents by losing a putative interaction between channels and pho...
متن کاملSignal transduction cascades regulating fungal development and virulence.
Cellular differentiation, mating, and filamentous growth are regulated in many fungi by environmental and nutritional signals. For example, in response to nitrogen limitation, diploid cells of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae undergo a dimorphic transition to filamentous growth referred to as pseudohyphal differentiation. Yeast filamentous growth is regulated, in part, by two conserved signal...
متن کاملInformation Thermodynamics Derives the Entropy Current of Cell Signal Transduction as a Model of a Binary Coding System
The analysis of cellular signaling cascades based on information thermodynamics has recently developed considerably. A signaling cascade may be considered a binary code system consisting of two types of signaling molecules that carry biological information, phosphorylated active, and non-phosphorylated inactive forms. This study aims to evaluate the signal transduction step in cascades from the...
متن کاملProtein kinase C: Ports of anchor in the cell
The cytoplasm is afloat with highly specialized proteins that have defined chores in signal transduction. Distinguishing among the myriad signals transduced by members of the protein kinase C family may be helped by specific anchoring of these enzymes to scaffold proteins that localize particular signalling cascades.
